Unfortunately, it seems you can't watch TVNZ shows online unless you are in NZ. So I don't get to watch Country Calendar.




But, for those who can't get enough of Paul Henry (though, no one may be getting him soon...) and other talking heads, there are several NZ news programmes available via podcast.




I watch them fairly regularly to become more acquainted with the local issues, especially since I got an HDMI cable to hook up my laptop to my flat screen.




Several are available at

and a few others I don't know all are available on this site.



Just make sure you have lots of room on your hard drive and are not bandwidth constrained on your internet service.



Enjoy
